a birthday card today

hi all!

so you would think having a girl i would not have to keep repeating "don't stand on the furniture - you can NOT fly!" yep. that is her latest mission. she is convinced she can learn to fly. we are going to head to chik fil a so she can play while i get some work done - got a few exciting things in the works but i have a lot of work to do to get there!

i have a birthday card to share today:

i got a bunch of lili of the valley stamps - oh how i ADORE those! i wish i could one every one of them! This is Time for a Cuppa and i thought it went perfectly with this cute cupcake paper! and check out those flowers - annyone reccognize them? no? that's cuz they are old as the hills primas - i love being able to use new stuff just like the next guy but i have a TON of the old primas and you will just have to suffer through my occasional not-on-trend products :P honestly it is just so hard to keep up with everything and expensive too!

i colored her with colored pencils and instead of stamping her with black i decided to use a very pale brown - i like it. i also love the vivid-ness of the colors. folks often think you can't achieve that with colored pencils but you most certainly can!

i will be teaching folks how in may in baltimore - registration is open so sign up! come for the class or come for the whole weekend! either way it will be lots of fun!

Marti, I love your coloring with pencils! Always amazes me when I see the vivid color you produce with them! I also have a TON of old PRIMA's. I'm not buying anymore flowers. I have boxes and boxes drawers full!drawers! See you in Baltimore!
